Areas of general research interest:

• Neuroimaging (MRI, fMRI, EEG, MEG)
• Biophysics of the neuromuscular system
• Development of new techniques/methods for study of the neuromuscular system

Current programs:

• Multi-modality (fMRI, EEG) study of motor control and fatigue
• Nonlinear properties (fractal, chaos, etc) in the neuromuscular activities
• MRI-based cortical structure measurement
• Biophysical modeling of neuromuscular behavior
